EARTHQUAKE!!!!

Family and Friends,

Its great to hear that you are doing well and are enjoying the things that you are doing.

This
week i dont have much to talk about except that we were running around
like crazy trying to talk with members and inactive members. Because we
had a lunch after church this last sunday for the whole ward and the
bishop asked us to go and invite everyone that we could and to share the
scripture that we chose for the theme of our ward conference in 2
weeks. This last sunday we had the biggest assistance in the ward with
61 people, this included 12 youth. (which is awesome)!! But anyway our
scripture for ward conference is Moroni 6:5 and 6. we are using this to
hopefully heelp people want to attends church and be reactivated. Thats
all that i have for the work this week.

But something really exciting happened at 1:40 in the morning this past Thursday.
We had a tremor which was a 5.4 on the rictor scale. I woke up because
my entire body was shaking. when it was over i just fell right back to
sleep. It was my first tremor that i have felt and it was a pretty big
one too. But because of this we now have to have a safety training just
to be sure all the missionaries know whet to do in the case of an actual
earthquake. So that should be fun.

Then today we went to the Costanera Mall. It is
huge!! Its 5 stories tall and right next to it is the tallest
bi¡uildsing in south america. There we ate lunch then i ate a cinnabon
cinamon roll and it was amazing. Its been over 6 months for a cinnamon
roll and it was like heaven. Then we found a LEGO store and, of course
like the little boy i am, i bought a lego! But they are really expensive
here which is a bummer.

This is all i have for this weeks email. Enjoy your week and have fun. Love you all!

Love,

Elder Ashworth
